We’re all familiar with handbag accents like studs, fringes, embroidery and quilted materials, right?
Of course – they’re used in lots of different kinds of handbag lines these days.
There’s a new kind of purse embellishment that’s been popping up lately though…
Animals have been showing up as decorative accents in a few brands of handbags. Of course, Marc Jacobs created the adorable mouse shoes, but dogs and lambs have been making their presence known as well.

Marc Jacobs had to follow the mouse shoes with a cat of course! This cotton tote from Marc by Marc Jacobs features a charming cat on the side.

Chloe has released a shopper for the dog fans. This cotton tote has a screen printed dog with a chain accent and tag stitched on to it.

Let’s not forget the cute and cuddly lamb – especially when it shows up on a shopper by L.A.M.B.! The PVC tote features a signature name plate as well.
